"I am not knowledgeable in this area. Thatâ s why I had to go looking for somebody who is. I did not have to wait for them to return my phone call and that is important when something has gone wrong with the pump. Alex analyzed the problem promptly and was able to fix a few things that were the cause of the problem. He determined that the pump was still working but that much smaller corrections needed to be made. It was fixed and completely corrected and I could not be happier. The cost was small given where I thought I was going to have to go before I talked with Alex. Marshall"

"Clear source is a wonderful water softener company! They made sure the instillation was at a convenient time and date that worked perfectly with my schedule. I am so glad I got a water softener and reverse osmosis. My skin is soft and moisturized now! Even better, I donâ t have to buy water anymore. Also, I use less detergent to wash my dishes which leaves more money to spend on vacations with my family. I would recommend them without hesitation."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

A lower-end water softener would cost around $900, not including installation. Each home has different requirements, water hardness, and number of inhabitants, so there’s a huge range in pricing—$600 to over $6,000. The average water softener repair bill is around $500, meaning it’s a much better option to repair any issues and only replace your softener if absolutely necessary. 

There are several things that can shorten the life of a water softener. Homes with very hard water may have to replace the unit sooner because the water softener works harder to filter out the hard minerals. High water usage and infrequent maintenance can also put more strain on a water softener.

The main difference between a water softener and a water filter is what they remove from the water. A water softener is specifically designed to remove hard minerals, while a filter removes a wider range of contaminants above a certain size, such as bacteria and other impurities. If your primary goal is to remove minerals, a softener is the best choice. If you want to remove various contaminants for safety or taste, a filter is more suitable. Filters are also typically less expensive to install. Depending on your water supply's specific issues, you may need to install both systems for comprehensive treatment.

You can install a water softener system by turning off the water supply, draining the water, and then connecting your device to the waterline. Next, you’ll fill your tank with the recommended amount of salt or brine (whichever your unit calls for; be sure to read the instructions). Turn the water supply on and check for leaks. You can opt to let your water run for a few minutes, then test it using strips. 

The process of inspecting your water softener system is similar.

Yes, a water softener can remove scale deposits. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, after you add a water softener to your home, “gradually the softer water will dissolve limescale scale deposits and remove the problem entirely.” Installing a water softener—or water descaler—will also help prevent new scale deposits from forming.
